Gear shift

The selection of the appropriate gear is a prerequisite
for a physically comfortable ride and making sure that
the electric drive system functions properly. The ideal
pedalling frequency is between 70 and 80 revolutions
per minute.
 It is advisable to stop pedalling briefly when
changing gears. This makes it easier to switch
gears and reduces wear on the drivetrain.

Selecting gears

The speed and range can be increased while applying
the same force if you select the right gear. A gear
recommendation is shown on the display to help you
select.
